Fallout Dust

In the dim light of the Musuem, Ethan stumbled upon an old, dust-covered pocket watch, its brass surface tarnished with age. As he turned it over in his hands, a strange energy pulsed through him, and the air shimmered like a mirage. Little did he know, this was no ordinary timepiece; it was a gateway to the past, a relic of a forgotten age.

After the crimson meteor streaked across the sky, human civilization plunged into stagnation. From that day onward, people could no longer manufacture rockets, nuclear bombs, airplanes, or cars… The towering pyramid of modern science and civilization crumbled, but the disaster was far from over. The world turned gray as the red meteor descended, like a spectral reflection in a mirror, slowly dragging the civilized world into an abyss of chaos. In this age, human life is as insignificant as dust; In this age, humanity shines like the stars. As the great structure collapsed, some saw a pair of twins standing atop the ruins of civilization, their blood-red eyes shifting between laughter and tears. The curtain of the era slowly rises behind them, and with arms wide open, they whisper softly to the suffering masses— “The show… begins.”

--WSA 2025 ENTRY-- "This… this can't be right," Kain muttered, staring at the towering obsidian castle before him. "The academy… I pictured a Hogwarts-like experience, not a military base!" He stood before the imposing structure, a mixture of awe and impending doom settling in. Armed with only the faintest recollection of the novel's plot, Kain has no idea what to expect. All he knows is that he’s not the protagonist. He’s not the villain. He’s not even the comic relief. He’s just there, and in a world that thrives on destiny, being “just there” is a guaranteed ticket to the bottom of the food chain. It’s a dangerous world, and Kain’s not here for a tragic death or a heroic arc. He’s here for one thing: survival. No need to become a legend. he is just an extra with the supremacy to carve out his own path, rewrite his own fate, and maybe, just maybe, come out on top when the dust settles.

On a quiet, nearly empty train, two young men collide, their eyes meeting as if by fate. To anyone else, it might seem like a fleeting encounter. But for them, it’s the unearthing of a shared history—one filled with years of innocent friendship, tender love, and eventual heartbreak. Known only as “Spring” and “Summer,” their lives were once intertwined, their bond forged through childhood and high school. But that was three years ago. At 20, both are scarred by the fallout of what was once sweet and hopeful. Now, as Spring attempts to retreat, the train doors slide shut, trapping him with Summer—the boy he once loved, who now regards him with disdain. Summer sits down, his glare sharp and unforgiving, refusing to break the silence. Spring hesitates, caught between his lingering feelings and the weight of his guilt. The train moves forward, and so does their unspoken tension. Can time and distance mend the fractures in their hearts, or are they destined to remain two seasons that could never coexist?

After behaving badly, he started killing bad guys in the Northwest Territory to atone. Crown Princess Esmaralde wants her space. If she doesn’t get it, well, she’s called Goddess of Glaives for a reason. Bon Bao thinks the Fourth Prince is cuter than a demonic red panda.

Though only ten, almost eleven, she intends to do something about that.

[Shadow Slave Fanfiction] To bear the weight of endings is to carry the hush before the storm’s final breath, to cradle the silence that lingers when the last note of a song fades away. It is to walk among ruins, knowing they are not beginnings, but echoes of what was—and what may never be again. To hold such power is not to wield creation, but to carve paths through the marrow of existence, to sever threads that were once tightly bound and scatter them to the winds, unweaving the fabric of what once was. It is a burden both solemn and vast, to touch the fragile balance between presence and absence. And yet, in every fracture, in every final note, there lies the faintest whisper of something waiting to begin— a truth that can only bloom from the ashes of its ending.

Determined to change her fate, she resolved to fight against the heroine until the bitter end. But then, the sweet and naive heroine unexpectedly… awakened.

In 2025, the mysterious “Virus Z” appeared in the Russian city of Sevastopol, transforming citizens into ravenous zombies. What was first thought to be a simple epidemic quickly revealed itself to be the most threatening pandemic in human history. Confident at first that they could stop this new pandemic, the world's governments failed to grasp the scale of the threat. As a result, China and Korea were among the first to fall. Then India, then Russia, until the whole Asian continent had collapsed. With no army able to stop the zombie tide, all of Afro-Eurasia succumbed and became a massive uninhabitable zone. In the end, only nature's impassable borders—the oceans—halted the spread of Virus Z. Ten years later, the world is divided into two zones: the forbidden Black Zone, where the infection is still present, and the White Zone, home to the world's survivors and refugees. The White Zone survives only due to Dr. Goldberg's “Genesis Project”—the creation of living biological weapons immune to Virus Z. These people, whose DNA has been modified to make them super-powerful, are known to the world as “Hunters."

From the moment a life-giving planet begins its rotation, it becomes a silent witness to the ebb and flow of countless civilizations. Empires rise from the dust only to crumble back into it. Species emerge, thrive, and vanish into the annals of forgotten time.

Nothing in its grand design remains eternal. Change is the only constant, as the very essence of existence is shaped by upheaval. In this crucible of adversity, where nature’s wrath tests the resilience of life, only those who evolve—who embrace the necessity of transformation—can stand at the precipice of survival. To endure is to adapt. To adapt is to conquer. And only through this relentless evolution can one grasp at the elusive thread of perfect victory.

Alicia once believed in love. She thought her marriage to Edward would be her forever, but forever turned out to be cold stares, endless silence, and a mistress he brought home after the war. The man she waited for now barely remembers she’s there, and the dreams they built together are nothing but dust. Then Lucien walked into her life. A charming, slightly eccentric florist who somehow knew how to make her laugh when she couldn’t even cry anymore. With him, she felt alive, like she mattered again.

Good and evil are but shadows cast by the same spinning coin. Justice is a myth—a lullaby for the weak to mask their fear of strength. In this world one can only rely on one's strength. It is not righteousness or mercy that shapes destiny, but the iron grip of might, crushing all beneath it. When the coin lands, it matters not which side faces up the only truth is this—those without strength are but dust, swept away by the will of the strong. A wise man once said that with great power comes great responsibility but I say that great power comes at a great price. As they say there is nothing free in this world, everything has a price. In order to gain something you have to lose something. People often lose themselves in pursuit of power. Their motives for seeking strength may differ but in the end it all leads to one end, some to protect their loved ones, some for recognition, some for survival and some to get revenge. They don't realize that on the journey they often lose themselves becoming the once they hated the most. They say it's often the purest of soul's that are easy to corrupt. This is the story of such a soul. This is his journey, his pursuit for strength, the reason behind it, the choices he had to make on the way and their consequences.
